Exploring potential imaging biomarkers for ischemic retinal vein occlusion: insights from fundus autofluorescence and optical coherence tomography
CME in patients with ischemic RVO is less easily detectable on FAF compared to patients with non-ischemic RVO. This lack of correspondence may provide insight into the type of RVO. We conclude that the presence of DRIL, a p-MLM sign, impairment of the integrity of the external limiting membrane (ELM), and decreased optical intensity or integrity of the ellipsoid zone and RPE can serve as effective indicators of ischemia in RVO patients.
